The Boston Globe Announces New England's Fastest Growing Companies 2026

In partnership with Statista, Globe Unveils Top 50 Companies With Most Impressive Revenue Growth

BOSTON, March 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, The Boston Globe is pleased to unveil the 2026 list of New England's Fastest Growing Companies. Developed in partnership with the data company Statista, this list highlights the 50 standout businesses that are fueling the region's economy through substantial and sustainable growth from 2021 to 2024, despite ongoing economic challenges. Read the full list at globe.com/fastest.

More than half of the companies honored are new to the list, with 22 returning, further establishing their sustained growth for the region. This year's list represents the most diversified one Statista has published yet, with highlighted companies hailing from every New England state and spanning across 20 different industries, including the health care sector, represented by the winning company, Tenovi, a remote care provider based in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.

The most prominent industry represented on the list is IT & Software, with nine companies, including second-place winner, Salient Predictions, an AI-powered weather forecasting service from Falmouth, Massachusetts, and third-place winner, HighByte, an Industrial DataOps software provider from Portland, Maine.

"One of our greatest hopes with this list is to shine a light on companies that are quietly growing — businesses that may not yet be household names, but are making a real economic impact every day," said Michelle Micone, Chief Marketing and Strategic Initiatives Officer at Boston Globe Media. "At its core, this list is about recognition and visibility, and celebrating the businesses helping shape what comes next for New England."

Statista, a global market research and data analysis firm, compiled all entries, vetting the impressive list of companies that entered this year's competition. To qualify, companies had to be independent, headquartered in one of the six New England states, and have annual revenue that showed a minimum of $100,000 in 2021 and $1.5 million in 2024.
